Prospects are looking Might for the corning season in the cheese line as the following extract from the Montreal Trade Bulletin will show. This publi- cation is considered the hest authority on matters pertaining to trade and commerce. 1t says in a report from London, England :- The continued hardening of the mat ket in cheese jus- tifies the firmness of holders who have refused to follow the week - kneed notions of some individuals who re. cantly tried to frighten the Market.
